Utagawa Hiroshige One Hundred Views of Famous Places in Edo

The Moon Pine on Ueno Hill

The Ukiyo-e is printed on Echizen kizuki hosho washi (a unique kind of Japanese paper) handmade by Ichibei Iwano, a living national treasure. This makes the vivid colors and the soft, warm textures of woodcut prints come to life.

The pine tree stood below the Kiyomizudo Temple and near the stone steps which led to the approach to Benten Shrine on an island in Shinobazu Pond. The tree was so named as its shape looked like a moon. It fell down in a strong wind about 120 years ago.
Hiroshige demonstrated a novel composition in this print, presenting a distant view of houses in Hongo through a large circular space formed by the tree. He depicted the trunk in the foreground in detail. It really looks an aged tree.
